Abstract excerpt
It has been shown in the previous paper that if one Drosophila chromosome lacks histone genes, the intact homologous chromosome has an increased number of histone genes. The present study shows that the extent of compensatory multiplication of histone genes depends on the nature of the deficient chromosome. An extra Y chromosome in the genome of flies without the deficiency does not affect their histone gene...
